What to expect…
On arrival, you’ll sign on and get kitted up before watching a short safety brief video. You’ll then meet your instructor and be assigned a bike for the day… then the fun begins! Head out into the fields to start your training – training starts off on flattish ground where your instructor will teach you the very basics of bike control and get you comfortable on the bike before gradually progressing onto ‘sections’. Sections are essentially obstacles which your instructor will mark out using coloured flags. As the day progresses, so will your skills! Each day is tailored dynamically to the ability of the group.
On the full day experience, you’ll head out for 2 hours in the morning before heading back to base for a hot homemade lunch. Once you’re refuelled, you’ll head back out for another 2 hours before the day grinds to a halt and your efforts are rewarded with a refreshing drink. You’ll leave with a huge grin on your face as you’ve just learnt to ride a trials bike!
The bikes…
- EM Epure FACTOR-e: The Ultimate Electric Trials bike, this bike uses a clutch, gearbox & tickover (As used in the 2024 World Trials 2 Championship, British Championship and Scott Trial alongside their petrol counterparts)
- EM Epure Race: Very similar to the Factor-e, still retaining a clutch & tickover but without a gearbox (Latest generation of the bike used in World Championship from 2021-2024, inc Scottish Six Day Trial alongside their petrol counterparts)
- EM Epure: Fantastic entry level trials bike, no clutch or gearbox to worry about just Rev and go , also comes with a PRB (Progressive Regenerative Brake) which is best suited to those with a road or mountain biking background, so you can just concentrate on the trials skills. (Used by many riders from leisure to clubman level Trials)
The awesome thing about the EM range is that the power is fully customisable, so as you get better throughout the day we can gradually increase it, so the bike evolves with you the rider, to get the very best out of your day.
Alternatively we also have a selection of petrol bikes; Beta Evo (2T) and Montesa Cota (4T) bikes to choose from. (please be aware that these are all geared bikes with clutches and will frequently require kick starting)
- Beta Evo 250 2 stroke Petrol: The latest generation Evo, the bike looks very similar to the first generation which first hit the trials scene around 2009 and due to its longevity is the most common bike found at trials events around the country from novice to expert
- Montesa 4rt 260 4 Stroke Petrol: The latest generation Montesa, first released around 2005 the Montesa Honda has received minor tweaks over the years to refine what is a very solid bike with a reputation for great reliability. This is the number 1 choice for 4 stroke riders and used by novice to expert riders alike however, due to its 4 stroke characteristics, is not always as popular at trials events.

40 years riding road bikes, what an experience, had to start from scratch and learn a whole new skill set & riding style. Great tuition & encouragement from the trainers. Fantastic set up, couldn’t fault anything. Bikes were like new, trails daunting at first, but we all grew in confidence & embraced the challenges. Also a quick mention to the catering, nice hearty pasta & cake to keep us fuelled.

Absolutely fantastic day. The most fun I've had on a motorbike for years and all done by great instructors who pitched the levels exactly right. Very friendly staff in all areas and great food provided. I would highly recommend inch perfect trials and will definitely be going back to do it all again soon.

After not riding trials for 25 years, this looked a very reasonably priced experience to see if there were any skills left. A mate and I turned up to be greeted by eager staff, impressive premises and 100 acres of trials playground. After kitting up and being given our bikes, we started with some easy sections to get a feel for the bikes and our skill levels. As the day went on we were riding rocky streams, banks, logs & roots before finishing up in their man-made trials park. Lunch was included (Moroccan chicken, rice and garlic bread with homemade rocky road for pudding-perfect for the changeable conditions!) along with hot and cold drinks. All the staff were super helpful and friendly. Our instructor was John who had a wealth of knowledge and patience by the shovel load. An excellent day for beginners or the more experienced. I would highly recommend.

The team at Inch Perfect trials are superb. Nothing is too much trouble and they go out of their way to make you feel welcome. My instructor, Tom, is great. Really explaining things well and tailoring the coaching to each individual’s needs. Progressively increasing the challenges through the session. I had a great time and learnt a lot. I highly recommend Inch Perfect trials.

First foray out on my trials bike since lockdown ended. I haven't been here before, and didn't actually know about it until a few weeks ago - February 2021. But what a discovery. Stunning location, utterly professional operation, fantastic support and coaching from the staff and instructors, and when, of course, my bike decided to stop an hour from the session end, they leapt into action and found me one of theirs to see me through. If you're into riding off road, go there. If you have never ridden off road, go there. The completely inexperienced riders were coached into riding as well as they needed within an hour, and the experienced riders, me included, learnt some new approaches and were helped out of some bad habits. Just brilliant.
